Thursday Night Football: Tonight's game in between the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers should be a defensive struggle, thus limiting it's Fantasy Football worth. I do think Vernon Davis could be, maybe the only Fantasy Football worthy play from this game because he matches up well against the big, fast, physical Seattle D. The only thing I really like in this game is the Under 38 total points spread. Austin D.
